Electromagnetic locks are better suited for gateways that are open by default. I can't imagine why someone would create a vault dependent on electricity. That being said, I'm sure there are plenty of crimes that would…
>"The only way to attempt to improve the situation is show respect and hope it's eventually reciprocated." With who? I don't have a neighbor, I have an endless string of rotating strangers. I understand that bad…
My nextdoor neighbor sold their house last year and now it's an Airbnb. Despite the fact that I live in a house in a normal residential neighborhood, I'm now forced to live next to a hotel. And I have no say in the…
I understand what's you're saying, that any digital scarcity is by design and therefore artificial. But damn I wish my Steam library had a resale value.
In this scenario I think the biggest issue with losing an account is the ability to aquire future purchases. But like I said, it's more a matter of principle for some. You own a book, you don't own a digital copy of a…
I assume this violates the EULA of most retailers and subjects your account to possible deletion. Not saying that it's likely, but DRM restrictions seem like a matter of principle to some people. Even if you can strip…
The quote is right there: "Radio (and TV) are uniquely obnoxious" Ads are obnoxious. That's not unique to radio.
What? Are you implying I don't deserve my job or I shouldn't exist?
But that's not a product of the medium, to be fair.
Aw. I want to like this, but I work in radio. If you remove ads then there's no reason for the broadcaster to keep going. I'm not trying to be controversial, but if you remove profit how can the business continue to…
And we're discussing it because it affects us (the public,) what's your point?
How is not paying for content a huge expense?
My opening phrase ("As far as I know") was intended to imply that I am not an industry insider. These are indeed assumptions. Are they unreasonable assumptions in your eyes? May I ask why? They seem reasonable to me.
Yes, 'no overhead' was incorrect. I meant 'significantly less overhead.'
Idk necessarily if the issue is 'who are you paying' as much as it is 'what are the people I'm paying actually contributing.' And in the case of YouTube the answer seem to be: we created and refined some amazing video…
AFAK, Traditionally it was: Producer pays for content and profit is derived from distributers that charge for access to the content. If people don't view money is lost. YouTube is different: Creators pay to create their…
So, an average person can make a living wage on income from YouTube/Twitch royalties?
"...she’s also scared of taking days off, mainly because she knows it’s a job..." At risk of sounding cold, why would anyone think YouTube/Twitch is a job? Honestly confused. Is there money there? Like, for an average…
I'm not sure what you're trying to assert? I'm not aware of a ile scale of brilliance. I also don't know why a history or libertarianism is relevant? I just think that the comment wasn't constructive.
Unless you provide reasoning this comes across as needlessly snide.
Apple patented a system to do this in 2016[1] but has yet to implement it afaik. [1]https://m.dpreview.com/news/0190365065/apple-patents-system-...
In addition to being somewhat condescending, your language seems to imply that an employee is never justified in questioning their company. For instance, you've said "why people feel" instead of "why this person felt."…
The comparison isn't wrong, it's nonsensical. It's like comparing the mortality rate of heart surgery to that of psychotherapy because they're both performed by doctors. If I died from talking to a therapist then, yes,…
Sure, but that's not what I've taken issue with. Once again, my issue is that you appear to have falsely compared flight safety to car safety despite the fact that the two operate in very different ways.
Respectfully, my objection is the implication that people should be okay with an "acceptable rate of mortality" for air travel because there's a relatively high rate of mortality for automobile travel (which is…
